Gardening is good for your health, say bloom lovers

RESEARCH published yesterday revealed that 93% of people agree that gardening is good for their health.

The results were released to highlight Pfizer’s free health screening at Bloom, the Bord Bia-organised gardening festival, which runs from today until Monday at the Phoenix Park, Dublin.

Bloom attracted 50,000 visitors last year. It will show how caring for plants can improve the quality of life for people of all ages.
